Subject: Back to the zucchini ...
Zucchini? We call 'em courgettes, but I think the Z word is better, as it incorporates a sort to of "yuck" sound ... yucchini? But I have a query about the NLAZOYNDNBP Day: do you leave it on the morning of the day, i.e. at 00.01 hours on NLAZOYNDNBP Day, or the evening, i.e. at 00.01 hours on [NLAZOYNDNBP Day + 1]? Would it be more efficient to putthe Zs in the bin (trash)? Or even not buy them in the first place? How a bout a National (or International, since we're in different countries) Don't Buy a Zucchini Today Because You Never Eat Them Anyway Day? Then it wouldn't really matter what day of the year it was, would it? Or how about - let's think B-I-G -- the International Year of Not The Zucchini? And every time someone asked you, "whassamarrer?" you would say, "a pregnant cucumber!" to mark its being the IYNTZ.
